Description Lars Vogel CLA 2018-03-20 09:53:53 EDT 
I frequently need to navigate to the caller of a method. My current process is to call Open Call Hierarchy and use Call Hierarchy view to navigate to the callee.

But I think it would be much nice if I could press the control key and select Open Caller similar to other navigation which is available.
Comment 1 Stephan Herrmann CLA 2018-03-20 11:03:00 EDT 
Clarifications needed:
- Comment 0 mixes "caller" and "callee" - which is it?
- what is the expected behavior for the (normal) case of several possible navigation targets (several callers or several callees)?
